React native Execution failed for task ':app:createBundleReleaseJsAndAssets'

I want to release my react native app to Google play store after upgrading it to new SDK but I am facing a problem in releasing it in AAB format. I am able to run my app in the emulator but not when i ran npx react-native build-android --mode=release as stated in the documentation.

Error

Starting Metro Bundler
warning: Bundler cache is empty, rebuilding (this may take a minute)
Error: Unable to resolve module .index.js from C:UsersuserDocumentsmadeeasyfinalMadeEasyLearningAppView/.: .index.js could not be found within the project or in these directories:       

> Task :app:createBundleReleaseJsAndAssets FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:createBundleReleaseJsAndAssets'.

error Failed to build the app.

I do have my index.js file in the directory C:UsersuserDocumentsmadeeasyfinalMadeEasyLearningAppViewindex.js so not sure what went wrong

What i have done

1. react-native bundle --platform android --dev false --entry-file index.js --bundle-output android/app/src/main/assets/index.android.bundle --assets-dest android/app/src/main/res then ./gradlew assembleRelease -x bundleReleaseJsAndAssets but I am getting Task 'bundleReleaseJsAndAssets' not found in root project

2. Disabled the enabledHermes but it still doesnt work as well

I would appreciate any help with this matter. Thank you in advance

Edit:

This is my index.js

import { registerRootComponent } from 'expo';
import App from './src/App';
import {name as appName} from './app.json';
import 'react-native-gesture-handler';

// registerRootComponent calls AppRegistry.registerComponent('main', () => App);
// It also ensures that whether you load the app in Expo Go or in a native build,
// the environment is set up appropriately
registerRootComponent(App);

and this is my app.json
